The more one makes spiritual advancement, one feels humble and as one's devotion is superficial that much he feels that he is a great devotee.
The art of loving creates the unity which has unlimited spiritual strength, and that is the greatest need in the world today. Each one of us can make such a difference if we become humble, if we develop a service attitude, and if we develop the broad mind to see the oneness of all living beings.
Humble people dont get Offended easily.
Krishna is present fully in His holy name and this is realized by the humility and sincerity in our chanting.
Sometimes the Lord gives us a free sample of religious experience, but for more, we must pay a price with the currency of sincere dedication to the process of cleansing.
The essence of spiritual life is simply to use our free will properly.
When love is pure, it has the power to conquer. Lover and beloved conquer each other by their affection. The source, the essence, the fullest manifestation of love's conquering power is the love of the soul for the supreme soul, or God.
Compassion is an essential element of love.
In our conditioned nature we do not understand value of something until we lose it.
Real humility does not depress you, but allows you to call intensely and brings us closer to Krishna.
Out of all the opulences of a living entity its humility which pleases Krishna. Other opulences can also please Krishna if offered with humility.
Compassion brings fulfillment to the heart. Selfish desires simply agitate the heart.
A sincere soul is not trying to make a show. His enthusiasm is an act of service.
What appears to be a curse can be a blessing if we simply appreciate the inner essence of the possibility of how to connect to God in that situation.
